Bestselling Puzzle Triazzle Coming to iPhone

Oh, the horror. I remember the bitter battles fought to wedge those triangular pieces of cardboard into their proper spaces—the dismay at realizing that I had just created a mutant, two-colored frog—the frustration as I dumped the entire puzzle onto the floor, time and time again…

Okay, so Triazzles weren’t exactly the bane of my childhood; actually, I loved them! They were pretty darned popular in the 90’s…so popular, in fact, that they’ve sold over 5 million copies worldwide. Basically, a Triazzle is a triangular matching puzzle. It looks easy on the surface, but don’t worry; it’s a challenge.

The iPhone version, set to be released on July 17th, includes both 9 and 16 piece puzzles, three difficulty levels, plenty of eye candy, and a “Shake to Solve” (cheater!) feature. Personally, I spent a ton of time with these things as a kid, but somehow managed to lose my collection in the intervening years. I’m looking forward to the chance to solve one again!

Will the physical glory of the brainteaser translate to a digital platform? I certainly hope so. The pre-release screenshots certainly look great.
